Why would you bother - stock honda seats rot...expecially 5th gen's...
but that being said you basically need to bolt your civic seats to your toyota rails. (assuming by some miracle that civic rails to not fit toyota rail bolt pattern)

$100?!! I was being offered like $40 for my stock, mint condition 6th gen seats!!
Anyways, the seats are no longer made to be easily bolted in. The seat frame is stamped so that the Civic rails can easily bolt up, so the two form a system. Gone are the days of 4 bolts on the same plane that bolt to rails. Now seats are being made to sit lower, so the bolts are rarely ever in a convenient location. I would say...seek seats that are better suited for your application. Otherwise, prepare to have some cutting/welding done, but then are you ever gonna be secure in a crash again?
